At moonrise, the moon may glow yellow or orange. This happens because the atmosphere scatters blue light and lets more red light through—similar to a sunset.
Astrophotographers should take advantage of the view, especially during moonrise when the scenery can enhance photos. Need help? Check guides on lunar photography and top cameras for night shots.
Besides the Flower Moon, look for Spica and Arcturus shining above it. Libra will rise to the left. Early on May 13, Venus and Saturn will appear in the east as the moon sets, while Jupiter and Mars will glow in the west.
